SJR109,1,2
1
Relating to:
recognizing October 26 in 2025 and 2026, as Intersex Awareness Day
2
in Wisconsin.
SJR109,1,5
3
Whereas, Intersex Awareness Day is recognized on October 26 in honor of the
4
first public demonstration by intersex people in the United States at the annual
5
conference of the American Academy of Pediatrics on October 26, 1996; and
SJR109,1,8
6
Whereas, “intersex” refers to individuals born with variations in their physical
7
or biological sex characteristics, including genital anatomy, reproductive organs,
8
hormonal variations, or chromosomal patterns; and
SJR109,1,11
9
Whereas, since the first Intersex Awareness Day in 1996, it has become a day
10
during which intersex people and allies come together to celebrate and uplift the
11
intersex community; and
SJR109,1,13
12
Whereas, approximately 1.7 percent of people are born with intersex traits;
13
and
SJR109,2,2
1
Whereas, intersex people are often stigmatized and subjected to
2
discrimination; and
SJR109,2,6
3
Whereas, intersex babies and children are often subject to unnecessary and
4
involuntary surgeries at a young age to make their bodies conform to traditional
5
notions of what it means to be male or female, although these interventions may
6
result in lasting physical and mental harm; and
SJR109,2,9
7
Whereas, medical practices should respect the human rights and bodily
8
autonomy of all people, and government institutions should implement policies that
9
protect and support intersex people; and
SJR109,2,12
10
Whereas, people born with intersex traits are an important part of the
11
diversity of our state and should be afforded equal dignity and respect; now,
12
therefore, be it
SJR109,2,15
13
Resolved by the
senate
, the
assembly
concurring, That
the Wisconsin
14
Legislature does hereby recognize October 26 in 2025 and 2026, to be Intersex
